Manager Emerson, of the Hotel st.
Louis, was the man whom Tatnall had
selected as his meat, and one day he was
standing in the sample room of the
hotel with party of friends, among
whom was Manager Emerson.
''Now's my time, ;" thought Tatnall,
and approaching Emerson he said:
Emerson, saw one of these fakirs,
who sells some kind of patent medicine
on the street, do difficult trick the
other night
'What was it"" inquired Emerson.
IF L had piece of paper I'd show
yoH." replied Tatnall.
One of the Office boys was sent after a
sheet o. paper. While he was gone Tat
nall managed to have the bartender set
a glass of ice water out on the bar.
When the boy came back with the pa
per Tatnall took it, and while the party
looked on, he made funnel and began
to illustrate how the trick was done.
You see," he said, ''you put this fun
mel in the lower part of your vest, this
way" and he stuck the funnel into his
vest. Now, the trick is to take half
dollar and put it on your forehead, this
way" and he held his head back and
balanced the money on his forehead.
just at this point Mr.. Emerson smiled
and, picking up the glass of ice water,
turned the contents into the funnel.
The water found its level, and with a
yell like the war cry of Kickapoo war
rior. Tatnall jumped into the air, and
while the gang stamped round the
room and laughed themselves pale, he
crawled off and borrowed some clothes
of one of the clerks while his own were
getting dry. 1t cost Tatnall something
like SIS to discover that Mr.. Emerson
had heard of the trick before he at
tempted to explain it to him, and he is

In Republican Ohio.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 21.-The operation
of the law of last winter, which repealed
the statute authorizing the establish
ment of sparate schools for colored
pupils, is producing friction in many
places. At Oxford, o., the colored
school and applied for admission to the
white school. A public meeting was
held and the school board was asked to
order the colOred pupils to their own
school. The board complied with the
request and the colored people propose
to apply for mandamus. At Yellow
Springs the school board has ordered
the schools closed indefinitely, or until
the legislature can meet and take some
action. At Ripley, o., suit in manda-
mus has been entered to compel the
school board to admit cOlored pupils.
